I got to hear the heartbeat again last week. Dr. said it sounded girly. I also had a blood draw to check for any possible problems/defects. I received a call this morning telling me that my results came back abnormal for neural tube defects They said I will receive a call in a few days to schedule me an appointment with a specialist to check everything. I am currently 16 weeks and I can't stop crying. I am so worried. Me and my husband have wanted a child for so long. We have been so excited. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.
